Sick and Tired of Being Sick

It will be wonderful once the weather warms up and all of the kids are healthy again. I mentioned before about them having strep last week. Well, this week, Tess was vomitting through the night (Sunday night) and then last night Lauren was vomitting. I don't know what the deal is. I thought at first it may have been this new recipe I tried last night (Indian Curry Chicken which was very yummy), but after the 3rd or 4th time of her waking up, I realized it was more than "something not settling right". She seems fine now. We'll just pray that no one else gets it...especially Ella.

Monday after school was dance for the girls. Tess was still not up to 100% yet, so Lauren just went. Tuesday night Lauren had "Activity Days" and they made really cute cards. Brian had class from 6-8 pm and I had Young Women's at 6 pm. The kids stayed home with him and I left them with strict instructions to be on their best behavior...(Brian said they were "ok"). So, for YW/YM we went to an Assisted Living Home in Lehi, and put on a program for the residents. They seemed very appreciative, and the youth had a great time as well. Last night was Scouts for Zach. They did some some physical fitness tests, and then they also did some cooking. Zach came home with a big muffin. BUT, Tess greeted him outside when he got back home and managed to knock it out of his hands. You know, some may be surprised by this, but Zach has quite the temper (thanks to the Griffith side of our family), and it was all he could do to keep from knocking her out. Sometimes I wonder what that crazy girl is thinking....sometimes (a lot of the time actually) Zach wonders why he was blessed with so many sisters. For the record, we all LOVE Tess...she is so full of life and silliness, and she truly brings joy and laughter to our days.

Well, not much going on here today. Brian has a Final tonight in his Environmental class, and I have a Card-Making class over at my neighbor's house. We started doing this as one of our Mid-week enrichment classes awhile ago, and I LOVE it.

We want to wish Grandma Beazer a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY today! We love her, and we wish that we could be there to celebrate. Lots of hugs and kisses to her on her special day!!

I'll sign off for now....love to all, Kim
